The Experience Hendrix Tour first emerged in 1995 as a one-off show originally known as the Jimi Hendrix Electric Guitar Festival, a celebration of Jimi Hendrix’s short but immeasurably influential career.

This isn't Whitford’s first time playing the Experience Hendrix Tour. “He had a really deep understanding and knowledge of the blues,” Whitford noted in a press released. “I don’t know where it came from. We all try and cop that feel. We can’t quite nail it, but it sure is fun to try and emulate some of what he did. There are a lot of good lessons in that.”

The touring tribute has gone through many incarnations before its first tour of the West Coast in 2004. Organizers consider this year’s outing the most ambitious to date, with 29 performances slated in February and March. Whitford will be performing with the Experience Hendrix Tour March 10-12; Rosas and Hidalgo will join March 9-11.

Among this year’s noteworthy tour stops is a special engagement Feb. 19 in Seattle, Hendrix’s hometown, at the city’s historic Paramount Theatre.
